THE BROKEN GLASS - - PART 2
The whispers started quietly.
At first, Richard ignored them.
“Your wife… she is always seen with one man like that,” a neighbor hinted.
Richard laughed it off.
“My Mary? Impossible.”
But deep inside, a seed of doubt had been planted.
Mary became more distant.
Phone always on silent.
Late nights became normal.
Respect? Gone.
One evening, Richard decided to visit her shop unannounced.
As he approached, he saw something that made his heart skip.
Mary was laughing.
Not the usual laugh she gave at home.
This one was soft… intimate.
And she was not alone.
A well-dressed man leaned close to her, whispering into her ear. Mary touched his arm playfully.
Richard froze.
His chest tightened.
He didn’t enter.
He walked away slowly like a man who had just lost something he couldn’t replace.
That night, he confronted her.
“Who is that man?”
Mary didn’t even flinch.
“Which man?” she replied coldly.
“The one at your shop!”
She hissed.
“You are now monitoring me?”
“Mary!” Richard’s voice broke. “After everything I have done—”
“Stop it!” she shouted. “I didn’t ask you to do anything!”
Silence filled the room.
Richard felt like a stranger in his own house.
Days later, things got worse.
Different men.
Different stories.
Different lies.
Mary was no longer hiding it.
One night, Richard returned home earlier than usual.
The house was quiet.
Too quiet.
As he walked into the bedroom…
He heard a voice.
A man’s voice.
Coming from inside.
Richard’s hands began to shake as he slowly pushed the door open…

God bless you as you do it.........
The door creaked open.
And there it was.
The moment that shattered everything.
Mary.
On their bed.
With another man.
For a few seconds, nobody moved.
Time froze.
Then Mary screamed.
“Richard!”
The man scrambled, trying to gather his clothes.
But Richard… he didn’t shout.
He didn’t fight.
He just stood there.
Broken.
Completely broken.
“So this is it…” he whispered.
Mary tried to explain.
“It’s not what you think—”
Richard laughed.
A painful, empty laugh.
“Not what I think?” he said slowly. “In my own house?”
Tears rolled down his face.
“I trained you… I built you… I gave you everything…”
Mary’s expression hardened.
“And so what?” she replied. “Must I remain tied to you forever?”
That sentence pierced deeper than any knife.
Richard staggered backward.
In that moment, he realized something painful:
The woman he sacrificed everything for… no longer existed.
Days later, the house became silent.
No laughter.
No warmth.
Just distance.
Then one morning, Mary packed her things.
“I’m leaving,” she said.
“For who?” Richard asked quietly.
She didn’t answer.
She just walked away.
Leaving behind a man… a father… a heart that no longer knew how to beat the same.
But as Richard sat alone that evening, staring into nothingness, his phone rang.
Unknown number.
He hesitated… then picked up.
“Hello?”
A female voice spoke.
“Is this Richard?”
“Yes… who is this?”
There was a pause.
Then the voice said something that made his blood run cold—
“Your wife… Mary… is in serious trouble.”
Richard stood up instantly.
“What do you mean?!”
The line went silent.
Call ended.
And just like that…
A new storm had begun.
